The Advocate Is Urging A Navy Veteran with Just Diagnosed Lung Cancer to Call Attorney Erik Karst of Karst von Oiste If Before 1982 They Had Navy Asbestos Exposure-Compensation May Exceed $100,000

    WASHINGTON, DC, March 30, 2022 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The US Navy Veterans Lung Cancer Advocate says, "If your husband or dad is a Navy Veteran and he has just been diagnosed with lung cancer anywhere in the USA please call attorney Erik Karst of the law firm of Karst von Oiste at 800-714-0303 if before 1982 he had significant exposure to asbestos on a navy ship, submarine or at a navy shipyard. Financial compensation for a person like this might be in the hundreds of thousands of dollars-depending on the specifics of how they were exposed to asbestos. A claim like this involves the $30 billion dollar asbestos trust funds-it does not involve suing the navy.

"Most people we talk with who now have lung cancer and who had routine exposure to asbestos prior to 1982 are stunned when they learn the $30 billion dollar asbestos trust funds were set up for them too-not just people with mesothelioma. For the best possible compensation results to happen it is vital the person who has been diagnosed with lung cancer recall the specifics of how they were exposed to asbestos on a navy ship, submarine or at a shipyard. It is this information that becomes the foundation for a compensation claim as attorney Erik Karst of Karst von Oiste is always happy to discuss at 800-714-0303." www.karstvonoiste.com/

To get compensated a person like this must be able to get specific about their asbestos exposure." www.karstvonoiste.com/
